Answer 1

Answer:

90

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of soldiers = 8160

Number left out = 60

Result of arrangement gives a perfect square ;

Hence, the number of soldiers which makes up the arrangement will be ;

Total number of soldiers - number left out

8160 - 60 = 8100

Hence 8100 soldiers were used to form a perfect square ;

Number of soldiers in a row :

√8100 = 90

Hence, we have 90 soldiers in a row
